08/03/18 @ 13:03Xavier LarduinatWhen the cardholder receives his/her new card, he/she is requested to go to the bank branch to perform the fingerprint enrollment with the assistance of a teller with a secure tablet (dedicated to the biometric card enrollment procedure). It takes a few seconds and it's very simple to do.
What is important to note here is that the Bank does not keep the reference fingerprint data on a local server nor in the cloud: Tge reference fingerprint data is secureley stored in the card and nowhere else. Later on when paying with the card, the comparison match/no-match will only be performed locally within the secure chip on the card each time the cardholder will put his/her finger on the sensor.
The reference data is securely stored inside a Secure Element chip that is proven robust for EMV. No one can access nor replicate it outside the card.

What's important with this innovative biometric card is that it works with ALL existing Point-of-Sales terminals at merchants, without any modifications.
So it's a familiar product that just gets even more convenient. Bottom line: great potential, even without blockchain
